Beautiful, Durable & Versatile
Timber is a resource that has stood the test of time
It is renewable, recyclable, and biodegradable. 50 per cent of the dry weight of timber is stored carbon, removed from the atmosphere by growing trees. Timber has a lower embodied energy than other building materials such as steel and concrete, and residues provide a renewable energy substitute for fossil fuels.
